This document discusses appropriate research sources for project plans. It recommends doing initial research to develop a plan and more extensive research after a plan is approved. The types of appropriate sources depend on the specific project, and it suggests checking with a supervisor about using academic journals versus professional magazines. Sources may include academic journals, professional magazines, and Wikipedia, depending on the project goals.
